Receptacle for battery-using equipment

摘要

In a receptacle of the invention for battery using apparatuses, when mounting it to a circuit board 30 , an electrode contact portion 15 of a contact for a battery 5 disposed on an electrode disposing portion 7 is disposed so that its forward portion may protrude above a battery mounting portion 52 . When mounting a battery 50 onto the battery mounting portion 52 , an electrode 51 in a recess 50 a is pressed against the electrode contact portion 15 in such an inclined state that the lower end of an end surface having an electrode 51 formed thereon is abutted against the right surface of the battery mounting portion 52 while raising the other end simultaneously and then the battery 50 is pushed forward to flex a slant strip 5 e toward the side of an electrode disposing portion 7 while pressing down the other end, so that it can provide a large flexure allowance as compared to the case of flexing it vertically and resultantly enhance the contacting pressure, thus securing the connection with the battery electrode.
